HI 10 : Unobtrusive problem-solver

I bought this thinking it would provide a nice supplementary sound for my piezo-pick-uped acoustic guitars. If you like the bottom-end of a piezo but hate the quack in the upper mids and the synthetic higher frequencies, a little condenser or dynamic mic can be a good investment, adding sparkle and capturing harmonics and transients with an accuracy a piezo can't.

This mic starts to cut off below 200Hz; it's a small diameter with a short barrel, so small, but it's solid-feeling. This combination means it's well-suited to my purpose, and I've used it further away from the source, where it was important to use something less obtrusive, together with a camera clip/gooseneck/swivel head.
